Could The Shortness Of Breath Be Due To Mitral Valve Regurgitation?
Yes I have been diagnosed with mitral vale regurgitation a test and was told valve is leaking I have had a 5 way bypass and a pacemaker put in I also have had stent placed in my subclavian vein. I have started to experience more shortness of breath and feeling malaise and some confusion at times. Could this mean my valve is getting worse?
